The recent installation of Pope Benedict XVI gave rise to numerous stories in newspapers across the world. There were literally thousands of photos used by various news services.
Imagine the surprise of many faithful Catholics in New York when they saw this AP wire service photo used in
amNew York newspaper.

In this photo, due to the optical illusion of horns coming out of the Pope's head it is hard to tell if this is a man of God or possibly a stooge of the devil. Needless to say many people took time to write the newspaper and let them know that they weren't happy by this illusion.
The newspaper printed the below two letters they received and an apology to anyone who may have been offended by this optical illusion.

One of my readers sent me the bottom picture but for the life of me I can't find the email anywhere. If you sent this to me leave me a comment so I can thank you properly.
